Key Points

  • Mesophyll is the correct answer because it is the tissue found between the upper and lower epidermis of leaves.
  • This layer is primarily responsible for photosynthesis as it contains the majority of the plant's chloroplasts.
  • The mesophyll is divided into two layers: the palisade mesophyll, which is closer to the surface and absorbs a large amount of light, and the spongy mesophyll, which has air spaces for gas exchange.
  • It plays a crucial role in the gas exchange process in plants, allowing oxygen and carbon dioxide to move freely.
